[SOLVED] Something's wrong with my start menu..

Hey,
Suddenly, with no apparent reason, though after a pacman -Syu, I lost most
entries in my KDE kickoff start menu (I am using the package kdemod-kdebase-kickoff).
For example:
Although openoffice and firefox are still installed on my computer,
I can't see them in the start menu anywhere.
Is there a way to automate the process of returning those applications back
to the start menu?
I tried re-installing firefox, for example, but for some reason it didn't do the trick..
Thanks
Fiod

I had the same problem with gnome.
A solution here from aodhon worked fine - perhaps you need to move the kdemod stuff back over?
his happened to me when I upgraded last time I just copied /etc/xdg/menus to ~/.config and then just loged back into gnome and they were back.

  • "Something went wrong with running Nokia Xpress" A...

    hello there,
    out of the blue the nokia xpress browser on my asha 501 does not start anymore: it just shows the blue background with the globe icon. when i press the back button, the following message appears:
    "Something went wrong with running Nokia Xpress"
    - I have subsequently updated the phone software to version 14.0.4
    - I have run the troubleshooter tool under "installed programmes"
    ("Debug <Ovi Browser> connecting on port 2800")
    - I have restarted the phone
    nothing helped.
    is anybody familiar with the problem and might assist with some help?
    thanks in advance
    *chris.

    Hi Chris,
    I had the same problem but I managed to solve this today (04/12).
    Follow the steps below:
    Be sure to backup your files.
    1. Settings (configuration) > Reset phone
    2. Click OK. Wait restart your phone.
    3. Run Nokia Xpress and DON'T upload your backup.
    I hope that your problem was solved.
    And, after this situation, when your phone ask to keep the old files of the browser, click on No.
    Bye,
    Pedro HSB
    If this helped you, please, give to me a Kudo Star, so I can contribute further, but, if this didn't help you, contact me and we gonna solve your problem together.

  • When I try to connect my iphone to itunes it will not work, but when I connect an ipod it will. This is telling me something is wrong with my phone I am jsut not sure what that is. Can someone help me.

    I was trying to update my music last night. But itunes told me it needed to be updates first. So I updated itunes, and my phone. But now when I connect my phone using the usb. It will not connect to itunes, all that comes up is a phone icon on my desk top(which doesn't allow me to do anything with) But when I connect an ipod it does connect to itune and I am abble to look at how much room is left, and the option to restore ect) . SO this tells me something is wrong with my phone it self. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem?
    Thanks.

    my final cut is running extremely slow after having for 6 months.  I use external hard drives and save nothing on my computer.  it takes a long time to render now. do you think something is wrong with computer. took it to mac store but they fail to help me.  I have a 13 inch mac book pro 10.6.8 8gb 2.3 gfz intel core i5

    What did Apple tell you about what they did (or did not) find here?
    See if working on the main disk is any faster.
    USB2 is glacial, as I/O interconnects go.  And USB2 disks have been known to fail, or sometimes to drop back to USB1 speeds, too.  FireWire 800 is substantially faster than USB2, but still not as fast as the internal drive connections can provide.
    Put another way, start varying your configuration, and see which configuration changes (still) have the problem, and which don't.

  • Something is wrong with XMLsocket

    alright , I am using XMLsocket class, actrionscript 2.0
    (flash 8). I have set up appache server on port 1024, and I can
    connect without problems. But something's wrong with sending test
    data (I am using log file to check for incoming server requests)
    the code is this:
    quote:
    var theSocket:XMLSocket = new XMLSocket();
    theSocket.connect("localhost", 1024);
    theSocket.onConnect = function(myStatus) {
    if (myStatus) {
    TraceTxt("connection successful");
    } else {
    TraceTxt("no connection made");
    theSocket.onClose = function () {
    trace("Connection to server lost.");
    function sendData() {
    var myXML:XML = new XML();
    var mySend = myXML.createElement("thenode");
    mySend.attributes.myData = "someData";
    myXML.appendChild(mySend);
    theSocket.send(myXML);
    TraceTxt("I am trying to send: " + myXML);
    sendButton.onRelease = function() {
    sendData();
    theSocket.onData = function(msg:String):Void {
    trace(msg);
    function TraceTxt(strMessage:String)
    dtxMessage.text = dtxMessage.text + strMessage + "\n";

    Hello Alana,
    Do these songs/tracks sound okay in iTunes?  Have you tried resetting your iPod to see if that makes a difference?  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together until the Apple logo appears. 
    I would also try a different set of headphones/earbuds to see if that makes a difference as well.
    And if the problem still continues, try restoring your iPod via iTunes and reloading all your music back over to it.
    The last you may want to consider doing, if nothing from above resolves the issue is to rerip these tracks into iTunes.  Try importing them in a different format or at a different bit rate to see if that makes a difference.

    something went wrong with my apple tv and now it says that it is in retail demo mode. How can i fix it?  I have had it for more than one year without any problem

    To turn on/off retail mode, go to settings, general, legal.
    Do not open legal, just put the cursor there.
    Then, on the remote, type this sequence : right - right - left - center.
    The AppleTV should reboot.

  • Something's wrong with my Adaptor

    My iPod mini's about 6 months old now (but it's the pioneer model), and most of the time I use the power adaptor to recharge the battery (the one that was provided in the box). For some reason every time I connect my iPod mini to the adaptor it just won't charge. Why's that? And can I get it serviced since I'm still under warranty? Help!!!!

    If something is wrong with your AC charger better let it be checked.

  • Something's wrong with iTunes

    Something was wrong with my iTunes before but then I deleted it and redownloaded it. It doesn't have the same problem anymore but now there's a new one! The iTunes License Agreement window pops up but then disappears! It happens really quick so I can't click on "I agree"! What am I supposed to do!?

    hi Can!
    I have the same problem... I cant listen to my music that i have bought online and transfered from CDs.
    what problem are you getting here? are you getting an error message when you try to launch itunes? are you just getting a "flash" of an itunes or quicktime screen? are you just getting an hourglass (in which case are you also running Norton Internet Security 2005)? or is something else happening?
    please describe your own symptoms in some detail. (err on the side of too much detail ... there's could be a bunch of different things going on.)
    love, b
